Chapter 78 The First Lady Is Not Vicious 19
Wushuang had thought about it a long time ago, leaving the professional work to professional people.

Let Feng Chu be responsible for repairing the embankment, she doesn't point fingers, she only promises that Feng Chu can concentrate on repairing the embankment.

Feng Chu thought about the best outcome, but the imperial envoy was able to listen to his advice and not insist on going his own way, which made the 100 million taels of silver go to waste.

Feng Chu never expected that the female imperial envoy who made him worry so much would be willing to let him take full charge of building the embankment.

This is not just a matter of trust, it is also equivalent to giving him the greatest credit for repairing the embankment this time.

Feng Chu fell to his knees and said excitedly, "My lord, thanks to your love, I will do my best to repair this embankment!"

Wushuang helped Feng Chu up with his own hands, and said: "You are the empress dowager's favorite person, I believe you can do it."

Lin Yin looked at Feng Chu bowing to Wushuang, still smiling, but feeling a little heavy in his heart.

Originally, he was thinking of trying to provoke Wushuang and Feng Chu. If the two had a quarrel, it would be convenient for him to do so.

Who knew that Wushuang would completely subdue Feng Chu so quickly, making his plan aborted before it even started.

It seems that the inflexibility shown by Wushuang before is all an illusion.

To be able to become an imperial envoy in the body of a woman is really impossible to be a person without brains, and she cannot be regarded as an ordinary woman.

No matter what was in his mind, Lin Yin followed Wushuang with all his heart and answered Wushuang and Feng Chu's various questions in every detail.

After roughly seeing the entire embankment, everyone turned around and walked back.

Wushuang asked Feng Chu: "Master Feng, how many civilians do you think you need to recruit this time to repair this section of the embankment?"

Feng Chu thought for a while and said, "It will take at least people to complete the construction of the dam before the flood season next year."

Wushuang thought for a while and said: "If civilian husbands are transferred from various prefectures, it is inevitable that some of them will travel too far, and the civilian husbands will also lose time in rushing."

Feng Chu was also worried, and said: "But if all the peasants are recruited from nearby, the number may not be enough, and the corvee cannot be added to oppress the common people."

Wushuang looked back at Qinglu and said, "Deploy a hundred imperial guards and run around to inform the people.

Those who have finished their corvee this year, if they are willing to repair the embankment, can get thirty copper coins a day as wages and three meals a day.

Those who have not yet served corvee can receive wages to continue working after the corvee ends. "

The wages of thirty copper coins are double the wages in the market.

With such a high salary, it is not afraid that not enough people can be attracted to work.

Anyway, Wushou has 100 million taels of silver in his hands, and if he is not exploited and corrupted, it will definitely not be spent on repairing the embankment.

Instead of taking the remaining money back, it is better to subsidize these working people.

Qing Lu replied: "Don't worry, my lord. I will arrange the imperial guards to publicize your orders when I go back, and make sure that all the people know the news."

Feng Chu also praised: "Your Excellency is merciful and sympathetic to the people. When the people have income, they will definitely compete to work. In this way, they don't have to worry about the corvee being too heavy and tormenting the people."

Wushuang turned back to look at the shade of the bodhisattva with a smiling face, and said, "Please trouble your lord, and send your servants to go with the imperial guards.

In case the people don't know the Imperial Guards and don't take what the Imperial Guards say seriously. "

Lin Yin just thought that the common people don't know the Imperial Guards, so they will believe what you say.

I gloated in my heart and waited to see Wushuang hit a wall, but in the end, people called him up, and it was really tight.

No matter how unhappy he was, Lin Yin didn't dare to show it, and said respectfully: "Don't worry, my lord, I will let the subordinate officials fully cooperate."

After inspecting the embankment, Wushuang went back to rest contentedly.

Except for the imperial guards sent by Wushuang to guard the treasury of Baiyin, the rest of the people surrounded Wushuang and Feng Chu to protect their safety.

But the main thing is to protect the imperial envoy Wushuang, after all, she is the thorn in the flesh of some people.

This time Wushuang went out without a maid, and did all the trivial matters by herself.

I haven't had a good rest in the past few days, and it's rare to live comfortably. Wushuang washes up and lays down early to rest.

Sleeping until midnight, the sound of weapons clashing came from outside.

Wushuang was awakened by the sound of fighting, raised his hand and drew out the long knife that was placed next to him for self-defense, and carefully approached the door.

Gently push away a bit of the window paper with your fingers, and check the situation outside through the window hole.

In the yard, Qing Lu was besieging a group of men in black with his men.

After a while, the group of men in black retreated steadily under Qinglu's attack.

One of the men in black suddenly whistled, and a group of men in black jumped out of the battle circle and turned around and ran away.

Seeing that the man in black ran away, Qing Lu didn't chase after him, but quickly came to Wushuang's room to guard, and asked his guards to chase him.

Wushuang frowned slightly, always feeling a little disobedient.

She opened the door, and Qing Lu who was guarding the door immediately said: "My lord, the assassin has been repelled, my lord can rest in peace."

Wushuang looked at the direction in which the man in black left, and said thoughtfully, "Qing Lu, what do you think these people are here for?"

Qing Lu was a little puzzled and said: "These people are assassins, shouldn't they come to assassinate the Lord?"

Wushuang shook his head and said, "That's not certain. If the one really assassinated me, shouldn't he try his best to kill me? Why have you been fighting with you in the yard?"

Something flashed through Wushuang's mind, and he said to Qinglu, "Go and see Feng Chu, hurry up!"

Qing Lu didn't understand why Wushuang asked him to visit Feng Chu, but he didn't hesitate, and immediately went to check Feng Chu's situation.

However, Wushuang's green law did not relax, and dozens of powerful imperial guards surrounded Wushuang to ensure her safety.

Not long after Qinglu left, the sound of fighting came from the direction where Feng Chu lived.

Wushuang breathed a sigh of relief. Sure enough, these people were feinting at him, and their real purpose was to assassinate Feng Chu.

Feng Chu was able to be sent out by the queen mother without hesitation because he was excellent in water control and no one could replace him.

If Feng Chu is killed, Wushuang will not be able to effectively build the embankment in a short time, after all, she can only talk on paper.

After the death of the flood control official, the situation is good and the mother will send another one, but there are many accidents in this process.

If the situation is not good, maybe the Queen Mother will blame Wushuang for her incompetence.

Moreover, those who oppose women as officials in the imperial court will definitely not let go of this good opportunity to attack Wushuang.

Soon, the shouting stopped, and not long after, Qing Lu brought Feng Chu, who was still in shock, to see Wu Shuang.

As soon as Feng Chu saw Wushuang, he gave a big gift: "Thank you sir for saving my life!"

Wushuang helped Feng Chu up and said: "Master Feng, please stand up, it was Qing Lu who saved you, not this official."

Feng Chu was a little shocked and said: "Thank you, they are all saviors of the lower officials.

If your lord hadn't thought of someone assassinating Xiaguan, and sent Master Qinglu to rescue him in time, Xiaguan would have already become a dead soul under the knife! "
